Xbox360.QJ.NET gets a facelift, and is hiring paid bloggers!

Posted Feb 21, 2006 at 7:00PM EST by QJ Staff

As you may have noticed, the QJ.net blogs are getting a major facelift! We are implementing new site layouts which make our blogs much easier to read, include a slew of new features, and in our opinion, look a hell of a lot better than our old layouts did!

We have been developing a custom CMS (Content Management System) back end for many months now, and we are proud to say that it is finally complete! We can add as many features to this new CMS as we want, so we are no longer restricted by Blogger's limited featureset. So expect to see many new site features added in the coming weeks -- such as a completely revamped comments system, User Favorite Articles, Top News Hounds, multi-language support, and much more -- to make the QJ.net blogs much more robust. Please check out all the current new features by looking at the two sidebars on the righthand side of the blog.

Along with the new CMS we decided it was time for all our blogs to ditch our old layouts and designs and upgrade to something better. There are still some small bugs, but we'll be polishing them out ASAP (still have to re-categorize all 2000 articles!).

We could have never done this without you guys coming to view the site, and we appreciate you! Keep coming back to support us. Expect bigger and better things from us!

Be sure to check out our other blogs. A list of them can be found on the sidebar column to the right of this post. Also, expect to see more and more blogs opened up on QJ.net on a variety of topics. What kind of stuff are you in to besides Xbox 360? Comment below and let us know what you think of the new layout, along with what new blogs you would like to see on QJ.net.

Additionally, if you are interested in hiring on as a paid blogger for QJ.NET on the Nintendo DS blog (or on any other blog), head over and apply by clicking "Apply to Blog for QJ" on the column to the right. We are looking for experienced writers and bloggers who can bring a unique, knowledgeable, insightful, and witty writing style.

Guys, please refrain from such useless posts!



The new layout is quite greenish and I myself find that the controller in the blog header is out of place :o I think the console deserves to be placed there even if it is a little small on the width side, I'm bet one angle of it being horizontal will fit

I didnt like the design when you put it on the ps3/nr blogs.. and i dont like it now...



also i think you should get rid of anonymous posting all together, there is no point in leaving it unless yuo want all of the spam they cause.
